Some of your art reminds me a bit of Jhonen Vasquez's artstyle! I love his works, so I was wondering if he was an inspiration for your artstyle?

Hello! I have probably subconsciously picked up on some bits from his art style since it's a seriously cool art style (I say "probably" because I haven't had an IZ phase believe it or not lol so I've never actually attempted to imitate his style.)

I draw a lot of Psychonauts fanart and some of the concept artwork from it is Vasquez-esque. My friends have asked me if he worked on the game before so I think there is a bit of a stylistic overlap.

I decided to take a crack at drawing Dib since I like him. He is my favorite character trope after all: nerd boy with glasses.

he can't dance, but for her he'll try!

Things from the eleventh month. I hope you'll enjoy them.

Oh, Elka. What's got you so upset?

I wasn't sure about posting these, but my friends seemed to like them so here we go.

Clem and Crystal but if they were drawn by my 16 y/o self.

We are lonely, we are all we've got.

Everyone has a character that they treat like a Barbie doll. So cute, right? Almost makes you forget she canonically wants to kill herself.

She has to burn that ribbon now.

Hello, Kitty

So I started using Ibispaint to use the wonderful pixel brush. I also learned that it has a timelapse function, so here is a timelapse compilation of me drawing pictures from October set to various VGM (uploaded to YT because it was too big for Tumblr.)

You can find all drawings right here.

Noodles Served in Pepto Bismol

I drew this for my sister's birthday since she likes Gorillaz (especially Noodle.)

Tomato Adventure is a game very dear to me. I played it for the first time on November 17, 2021. That day was very, very bad for me, but it was also very good because I got to play this game for the first time with my friends. It's brought me great joy during dark days.

Before the campers, I had these guys.

November 10th happy (non-canon) birthday, Clem

This is an old drawing, but I still like it. This was done way before I started writing dates on everything, but I figured out that it's from November 1, 2019.

(October 2 - October 30, 2024)

I hope everyone had a good Halloween. Here's Sasha (and lots more.)

For ya mind, and ya body, and soul-soul (a redraw of a redraw? Wow)

I wanna put cute star-shaped hair clips in Chloe's hair… if she had any. We will have to improvise.

Children often enjoy being pushed on the swing set by their parent or legal guardian.

A true father-son bond is hurling a flaming, spiked juggling pin at your son's cranium.

Trick or treat! 🎃 (and Happy Halloween)

and a happy halloween to you! let's cap off the party house with a little slowdown of crystal and mikhail chilling on the roof.

In the clear, cloudless sky, the moon shines as a full, white circle. It burns unlike the sun, providing silver streams of light upon the neighborhood. Everywhere Crystal looks from her spot on the roof, sitting on the even slabs of cold, metal shingles, Halloween persists. While the families are dwindling, the trick or treaters her age are plentiful, dressed in form-fitting princess dresses, or contrasting their positive peers with witchy visages. They cheer and shout, still going from door to door reaping chocolate bars, such as the Grim Reaper quite literally using a scythe to scoop candy from a bowl on a stoop into his bag.

Crystal grins, folding her knees to her chest. She can’t tell the time, but no one seems to care. The hours melt together in darkness punctuated by moonlight accentuated with pops of orange and red colors. Nearly every home takes part in the festivities, her interest catching on a yard littered with open graves and rising, animatronic zombies. Their moans and groans echo, mingling with the howling of werewolves and filtering through fog seeping from nearby machines on separate lawns.

Extending her legs and shaking her polished, buckled shoes, Crystal examines her outfit. It’s far poofier than anything she would usually wear. The pleated dress is baby blue, the cotton fabric matching her wide apron and frilly stockings. She applied the paint herself, rosy red dots on her cheeks and nose to match the little bows sewn onto her apron. With her scarlet wig brushed and blow-dried to full perfection, she makes quite the lifelike Raggedy Ann.

She’s matching with Clem, and her friendly Andy is still slinking through the party. She had last seen him with Quentin and Phoebe before she made her way upstairs. She had split seconds to press herself into the handrail when Bobby dashed passed her, the feathered Raz hot on his heels, like they were teenagers all over again. She had to hope that the awfully realistic chainsaw the former waved was fake.

A window clicks. She looks over her shoulder, watching as a furry, brown arm pushes it out. With a little struggling, the figure wriggles their way through the rather cramped window. On their knees, their oversized helmet rolls off their head, their identity immediately bringing a smile to Crystal’s painted face.

“Ah, is Ann,” Mikhail says, wearing, quite possibly, the most surprising attire out of the entire entourage. The bear costume covers Mikhail from head to toe in overgrown, deep brown fur. The grizzly’s paws and claws are a tad bulbous, giving an overall exaggerated feeling to the costume. Compared to Dogen’s bunny onesie, Crystal had been able to see his face, as this headpiece completely concealed Mikhail’s face and replicated a hulking grizzly bear to a level of stark realism.

Crystal offers a quick wave. “Oh, hey, Misha! What’s up? Partying treating you good?”

He approaches, carrying his headwear under his arm. “Yes. By yourself?”

The underlying concern would have been dismissed with a sharp laugh or brisk wave of her hand. But now, she arches her back and clutches the shingles, making herself more comfortable as she stretches. “Yeah, just needed a breather. No biggie.”

“Then, care for company?” “Always!” She pats the spot next to her, beaming as he sits.  “Super cool bear costume, by the way, but isn’t it hot in there?” “Not at all. Provides nice, thick warmth in face of the elements.” Mikhail rubs his thin cheek with a paw that smothers his face. “In fact, wind doesn’t feel as nice as I hoped without bear head. Crisp and refreshing, yes, but carries bothersome humidity. Will probably rain soon.”

She snickers, catching a duo leaving the party. As they pull themselves up the paved, stony path, she quietly gasps, and her humor fades. “Hey, is that Lili down there with Dogen? It’s still pretty early to go home.”

He leans into her, setting his headpiece behind them. “Ah, he suffered from a bad headache. I felt his psychic energy leaking. Came up here to avoid any messy consequences, but seems to now be under control.”

“Aw, I hope the noise wasn’t too much.” Crystal tugs on her earlobes, frowning. “Then again, my ears are still ringing, so I get where Dogen’s coming from. I shouldn’t have stood so close to Quentin’s speakers.” She takes off her wig, her hair net slightly tugging on her sweaty tresses. Suppressing a yawn, she leans back. The moonlight blankets her, and Mikhail follows suit. He lies down, as well, and the silence is comfortable. Without nagging gnats or mosquitoes, the chill in the air enough to put them to rest, Crystal is soundless, at peace, content to listen to muffled music and musing thudding through the roof.

She doesn’t know how long it lasts. It could be minutes. It could be a full hour. With Mikhail’s calming presence, the dull buzzing gradually disperses. Her mind is as tranquil as the breeze.

And when a particularly amused voice intervenes, Crystal’s smile widens.

“So, am I the only one who thinks Kitty looks pretty ridiculous in that top hat?”

Clem makes himself known as he climbs through the open window. Dressed in baggy dungaree overalls and a striped, plaid shirt, Clem looks the part of Raggedy Andy with his matching wig and polished shoes. He joins them with a red Solo cup, the punch smelling too fruity for Crystal’s liking, or it might be liquor. She never cared for the either.

“As ridiculous as former Leatherface bully swinging around fake chainsaw,” Mikhail says as he rolls up. “More of a nuisance than a killer.” She lets loose a dramatic sigh. “Oh, good, it is fake. I almost got clipped with that thing.”

“Yeah, I wouldn’t put it past Bobby to lug around the real deal,” Clem admits, sitting next to her, and as soon he makes himself comfortable, a new clamor arises, primarily consisting of particular revving. “Oh, well, speak of the devil, and the devil will answer.”

Mikhail cracks his knuckles. As the apparent chase changes venue to the outside yard, and Raz and Bobby shout at each other, he sets his headpiece on straight. He flexes his arms, bounces in place, and states, “Well, will be seeing to the matter. Might be good challenge with an acrobatic dove and chainsaw-wielding lunatic. See you in a while.”

As he approaches the edge of the roof, Crystal chirps, “Bye bye, crocodile!”

He slowly looks over his shoulder. “Is Misha.”

With those parting words, Mikhail casually levitates down. As he enters the fray to the startled sound of Bobby and Raz’s shrieks, Crystal snickers and shakes her head. Clem knocks back his drink.

“That guy-” He wipes his mouth with his sleeve. “-is still a total enigma.”

“His bear costume is really great, though, right?” “Oh, totally. I’m just dumbfounded about how he’s not sweltering in that furry mass.”

“It’s like you said, Clem. Misha is an enigma, just a totally cool enigma.”

Comic about Crystal for @32bitterra

Here is a drawing of DeMille I made in Wigglypaint from September 15, 2024.

Absolutely, @greenethorn !

Here is Chevron! She also likes to go by "Chev." She might have a bit of a mean or aloof look to her (Sometimes. She seems pretty happy in that drawing though), but she really isn't mean at all. She is one of Hertz and Caprio's classmates (if you remember them.)

She's used to her peers telling her to "shut up" and to "go away" and that she's "weird." It used to bother her, but not anymore. She knows their frail minds cannot understand her, so there is no use in trying. She knows who she is and she owns it.

She has a very strong interest in the paranormal and "spooky" things. No one wants to hear about this, so she's all alone. That's fine, she has her "ghost friends."

Some of her other interests include collecting rocks, gemstones, sticks, leaves, feathers (molted from her avian classmates), or other meaningless "trash" items, staring menacingly from around the corner, and trying to explore places she isn't supposed to be in.

So when Hertz (a real life demon, just like the ones in her books!) joins the class, she is ecstatic. She's fascinated with her (please don't be weird about it though, they're kids and there is no romance.) She can be overwhelming when she is passionate about something. She can also be a bit oblivious at times.

It's still October 7 here, so happy birthday Chevron! She's another one of my OCs. Looks like her auntie got her something nice for her birthday.

She's 10-11 years old, but in real time she's turning seven! I made her back in 2017. She was originally an OK K.O. OC, but last year I decided to dust her off and turn her into a "regular" OC. The illustration on the left is from March 2023, and the one on the right is the first drawing of her from October 2017.

Ask about her if you want. She's quite unusual and she would be glad to meet you.

(September 3 - September 30, 2024)

This was quite an eventful month. Here is what I drew during it.

Sasha is happy, he's just bad at expressing himself.

@cosmicheartz's OC, Dixie Hoofburger, who is J.T.'s little sister. Thank you for letting me draw her.

Cackling fiend

Drawing nice Bobby feels weird, but it's a nice change of pace.

I got a little distracted.

I tried out an application called Wigglypaint, so naturally I drew Quentin.

Milla told him to stop enabling her suicidal tendencies with violence. (Original here)

I listened to "Stargazing" by Tayla one night and became inspired.

Sister's request. I think Sam and Dogen communicate in a manner completely incomprehensible to anyone besides them.

September 27 is National Scarf Day. Anything for an excuse to draw the characters I like most.

So here is what happens when a ten-year-old psychic DJ, a loner robot, and a ninja mouse are put together.

I love my son Elton. It's crooked and lil creep, but it's made with love hahahaha lol🥺🥺💙💙💙. For the first time I tried self-sealing clay purely for myself, as well as this Elton with a fish is based on one of the terra sketches from this post.

September 22 is Crystal's (non-canon randomly selected from Virgo dates) birthday, so I did what any normal person does and made some drawings.

Idk if u take requests but if u do could we have some Razlili PRETTY PLEASE MY BABIESSSS

I say I don't take requests until I'm asked to draw Raz, Lili, or other campers. My will is weaker than wet paper lol

Nah, but really, I enjoyed drawing this. Thank you for giving me the chance to draw them.

(She loves him too.)

Finished it!

i've noticed that the psychonauts fandom is so small, and more specifically so tight knit, that everybody kind of knows everybody. It's like we all live in a big cul-de-sac. I've even started compiling what seem to be household names in the fandom world.

People, usually artists, that are just there. In every mini-circle, in every server, in every "OH MY GOD LOOK AT THIS/pos" convo.

all this to say: me and my friends love your art. it's amazing and you've had a very positive impact on the fandom (or at least a fandom server, which has enough people and inside jokes to be its own fandom at this point lmao)

I want to deeply thank you, your friends, and everyone who leaves very kind words on my artwork and in my inbox. I want you all to know that I keep those kind words rotating in my head like a rotisserie chicken, and that I go back to read them again and again. I am deeply grateful and very happy that my drawings are so well-liked. I often underestimate myself and the impact I have on others, and to read that I have had a great positive impact on something is mind-boggling (in a good way. It's a little hard to describe the feeling.)

It makes me very happy that I've brought joy just as other artists have brought joy to me with their drawings and writings. It's a great feeling, and I am very thankful. I like our little fandom. We're all holding hands and spinning around like that monkey gif.

That won't work, Crystal.

Misha doesn't appear in any mental worlds, so we don't ever see him astral project. I drew what I think it might look like if he did (with stuff referencing a drawing above on the side.)

Well, I guess we're all going to die. My whole life is flashing before my eyes. My first memory is of my dog, Lady.

What an Amazing Mirror, right?

I'm glad that my adult Crystal was met with positive reception. I couldn't decide to show with or without color, so just have both versions.
